It is not only an *usage* error it is also an *security* error because:

1) "cnf" is using OS python

 > head /usr/bin/cnf
#!/usr/bin/python3

import gettext
import os
...

2) os "root" python
 > ls -al /usr/bin/python3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9  2. Dez 13:16 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.6
 > ls -al /usr/bin/python3.6
-rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 10560  2. Dez 13:16 /usr/bin/python3.6

3) using **my** local non-root library
 > ls -al NHI1_EXT/lib64/libsqlite3.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 dev1usr users 19 23. Dez 22:09 NHI1_EXT/lib64/libsqlite3.so.0 -> libsqlite3.so.0.8.6
 > ls -al NHI1_EXT/lib64/libsqlite3.so.0.8.6
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dev1usr users 3851872 23. Dez 22:09 NHI1_EXT/lib64/libsqlite3.so.0.8.6
